Calls around the exam
Phone interpreters for disability claim calls about intake, history and scheduling
A phone call cannot replace an exam that needs the examiner to see the claimant. The clinic or agency books a phone interpreter for the calls before and after.
Intake calls
Before the exam, the clinic calls the claimant to confirm the visit, ask about the condition and explain what will happen. The interpreter interprets the call in both directions.
History interviews
Where the examiner takes the medical and work history by phone, the claimant answers questions about past treatment, jobs and daily activities. Put the claim reference in the notes.
Scheduling calls
A call to set or move an exam date has to be understood in full, including the address, the time and what to bring. The interpreter interprets each detail in both directions, and the claimant can ask questions.
Claim calls
What to know about disability claim calls with an interpreter
When phone is used
A claim call by phone suits the parts of a disability case that need only talking, such as an intake call, a history interview or a call to set the exam date. The exam itself, with its tests, is held in person, and sometimes by video. Phone is also chosen when the claimant has no video, or lives far from the clinic.
Who is on the line
Staff from the clinic or agency dial in at the booked time for an intake or scheduling call. Where the examiner takes the history by phone, the examiner joins too. The claimant picks up from any phone. The interpreter dials in, and once everyone is connected can add a third person, such as a relative the claimant wants on the call.

StaffInterpreterClaimant
The interpreter's role
On the call, the interpreter lets staff and claimant talk as they would in one language. What the staff or the examiner say reaches the claimant in the claimant's language, and the claimant's answers reach them in English, in the first person and in full. Answers about the condition are interpreted as given, with no opinions added. The interpreter works for neither side and keeps the call confidential.

Details for the notes
Add the claim or file reference, the clinic's name and the purpose of the call to the booking notes, and the interpreter reads them before the call. Staff say a part and pause, the interpreter repeats it to the claimant, and the claimant's answer is interpreted back. Share the dial-in number and the access code with the claimant, since the confirmation holds both.
On-site, video or phone
Choosing between phone, video and on-site for a disability exam
Phone fits the talking parts of a claim. The exam itself needs another setting.
On-site
An interpreter in the room is needed for anything the examiner has to watch, such as a physical exam or a functional capacity test.
On-Site Interpretation for Disability Evaluations
Video (VRI)
Video fits a psychological evaluation or an interview, when the examiner allows it and wants to see the claimant.
Video-Remote Interpretation for Disability EvaluationsPhone (OPI)
Phone fits intake, history and scheduling calls, or a claimant who has no video.

If you also need translations
If you also need documents translated for the claim file
Nothing can be put on screen during a phone call, so translated records have to reach the clinic first.
Hospitals and clinics
Medical records from doctors abroad, translated into English and sent to the clinic before it calls.
Courts and depositions
Legal papers the claimant filed, translated into English and sent ahead to the representative.
Meetings and negotiations
Employment contracts from earlier jobs, translated into English so a history call can refer to them.

Questions about phone interpreters for disability claim calls
The ones we hear most often, answered by our dispatch and project-management teams.
Can't find it here?
01Can the examiner take the history by phone?
The examiner or the agency decides, so ask before you book. If the answer is no, book video or an interpreter in the room.
02Does the claimant need a smartphone or an app?
No. The claimant dials the number from any phone and enters the access code from the confirmation.
03Can we move to video if the examiner wants to see the claimant?
Yes, we can switch the booking to video if the interpreter is available then.
04Are claim calls kept confidential?
Yes. An NDA applies to every call, and nothing is recorded unless you ask. A BAA is available for healthcare customers.
05How is a claim call priced?
The price follows the length of the booking, and the total is shown before you pay. Book the time the staff plan for the call, because unused time is not refunded.
06Which languages can I book for a claim call?
70 languages, each with English on one side. Spanish, Vietnamese, Arabic, Mandarin and Korean are the easiest to schedule. Rare languages need more notice.
07Are your Italian interpreters certified?
Yes. Court-certified and medically credentialed Italian interpreters are assigned to legal and clinical matters — Federal Court Interpreter Certification, state court rosters, CCHI / NBCMI for medical. For community, educational and corporate settings we assign professionally trained interpreters matched to the subject.
